An Expert Roundup Guest Post for B2B Marketers
Introduction
If you enjoy devouring our content, we’ve got some great news for you! Our writers have been working with similar B2B organizations over the last few months to create more content that you will relate and grow from!
In our first-ever content calendar segmentation, we touched upon topics such as lead generation, video marketing, content marketing, the measurement of analytics, among several others.
These are some of our favorite blogs from the last month gone by:
1. The Art of Generating Leads with your landing page
Landing pages, unfortunately, are mostly overlooked as a way to generate more leads. Despite the statistics that prove how a great landing page will win you leads, many a business are guilty of ignoring them. With a minimal amount of effort and minor tweaks to your design and layout, your landing page could help you generate even more leads.
Here are our key takeaways:
Create appealing visuals - Our brains processes images 60,000 times faster than written text. Choose the right palette and construct spectacular visuals to lower your bounce rate ratio.
Ask for less information - Few visitors enjoy filling-in forms that ask for way too much information. Ensure your questionnaires or CTA’s ask only for what is absolutely necessary.
Work on your CTAs - Create simple, unique and attractive CTA’s. Use no more than 7 words and ensure that it’s prominent enough to grab visitors’ attention.
Offer free products - Everyone loves free stuff, and nothing spreads the word about your business quite like free demos and giveaways.
2. Creating Brand Awareness with Unique Content
Whenever we think of a product, the brand we associate most with is the first thing that springs to mind. In the age of digital marketing, brand awareness is synonymous with good, recognizable content. Here are some ways you can create brand awareness with the help of your content.
Identify your target audience
Know your audience thoroughly, and understand their interests, habits, and preferences. Tailor your content according to these factors.
Go Beyond your Product
Ensure your content has an emotional aspect to it that helps readers connect with it. By pulling the right emotive strings, you encourage prospects to convince themselves that they need, what you’re selling.
Mind your tone
Decide the most appropriate tone to channel your content with, whether formal or informal as per the requirements of your business. Understanding the differences between tones helps you craft the appropriate message for your audience.
Design an effective content strategy
Ensure that your content humanizes your brand and can establish a connection with your prospects on a personal level. Choose the right medium and platform to share your content. Create a schedule and adhere to it.
